Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Why don't they answer the phone?
I have been trying to call the office the last three days. Each time it rings until the answering service picks it up only to then be told I have to call back during business hours. The problem is the office does not pick up the phone, the answering service will not take a message or help in any way. So far I have 24 calls into the office over a three day period. I simply want to reschedule my appt.

Horrible front desk!!!!
The first visit went smoothly: the doctor ordered a comprehensive range of tests, as well as an X-ray, all of which I completed in full. However, it later turned out that the office administrator had failed to enter my insurance information, resulting in a $600 bill for the tests.After that, I tried to schedule a follow-up appointment, but doing so by phone was practically impossible: the line was constantly busy, and whenever I did manage to get through, the call would drop. In the end, I had to book through the docdoc service.When I arrived for the follow-up appointment with my child (without having been warned in advance that this was not allowed), I was informed that bringing a child was not permitted. When I asked to simply wait in the office for my test results, the staff began calling the police—whether to force me to leave or to intimidate me is unclear. I had waited an entire month for this appointment, spent time and money, and was dealing with leg

Horrible experience
I had 2 visits, first time after waiting 2 hours an assistant asked me to wait in a room, and told me the dr will see me after a person who came after me without an appointment. I cancel.Today after 45 minutes, an assistant told me to wait in a room. I asked if I was going to be seen next, the assistant told me there was 2 people before me, probably another hour waiting for my appointment. I cancel.This office or Dr don't have any respect for their patients time. I won't be back

OUTSTANDING!
Walk in to a bright airy beautiful office, staff smiling and friendly more important helpful and knowledgeable, with a smile makes a change these days, Randy and Rebecca very helpful. Dr. Munoz is in demand so the wait was about 20 minutes. not bad for specialist. He was amazing, 1st experience like this. He was very attentive, listened, amble staff for him to actually spend time with me. Full service facility, lab, x-ray, bone density, ultrasound and infusion room. I have my doctor finally and will be continuing treatment with Dr. Munoz and his staff.

I feel very fortunate that Dr Munoz has been treating me for systemic lupus for almost 25 years! He is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. His office has state of the art equipment which is beneficial for patients, often saving time and helping in diagnoses. He also has an outstanding physician assistant and helpful staff. I have highly recommended this office to friends and family.

I saw Dr. Munoz for the first time today and was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. He did not rush and discussed my issue. I hope this continues. I am not pleased to get the answering service during normal business hours and not get a call back the same day or so.

This office is atrocious. They have no respect for patients. Waiting over an hour and not answering phone calls during normal business hours is the regular business in this office. I’ve been taking the same medication for over an year and it’s taking me over 6 calls (1 hour each) to get a simple refill. Receptionists lied that the prescription was sent and I’ll be going in my second consecutive week without my medication because of how poor their service is. I’ll be definitely looking for anothe

My appointment was at 3:00pm, and I was seen at 4:30. I have 3 chronic conditions, and my husband drove there. When Dr. Munoz came into the room, the first words out of his mouth were: " your conditions are very hard to treat". True, but not encouraging at all. When I tried to ask him ONE question, after he ordered a bunch of lab tests, he said to my face: " I don't have time for that". When I repeated it back to him, " oh so u don't have time?", he just walked out of the room!! HORRIBLE!!!!

I do not recommend this doctor at all. He misdiagnosed me and when I found out my correct diagnoses with another doctor he did not want to be involve in helping me. I called several times and he never called back. Also his appointments are very short and doesn't listen to the patients. Beware!

Dr. Munoz and his staff are welcoming and sincerely are concerned with you and your needs. Dr. Munoz listens to you its not just in and out in only 3 minutes like most doctors. He looks at the whole picture not just the small picture. His office is the cleanest most organized office I have been to In years. I will be back and continue to see his as long as he is in practice in the south Florida area. I drive from Boca and every minute is worth it.

I was able to make an appointment 3 days after calling. His staff was delightful helpful and caring the girls in the front office were efficient and always smiling while juggling many things. The nurses were kind and gentle. Dr. Munoz was amazing, I had heard so many wonderful things about him I am sorry I did not go to see him sooner, if I had I night have felt better sooner and had a better handle on my Lupus. He is truly a healer, old school doctor, listens to what you say, takes the time.

My education/career placed me in 16 diff states over the past 20 yrs, allowing me the great fortune to be treated by every top Lupus specialist in this country. SLE is complex, unpredictable, and at times, incredibly scary - and I trust/respect Dr. Munoz's opinion-ideas as much, if not more than any other rheum I have seen. I also value his knowledge-use of complimentary/alternative medicine
